Citizens Outraged Over Feds Dumping Illegals at Texas Bus Stop

Though the mainstream media have largely ceased reporting on it, the surge of illegal immigrants from Central American nations coming across the southern U.S. border has continued and even increased over the past couple of years.

When these migrants are caught by federal immigration agencies, they are merely processed and released into the country to go on about their business, instead of being deported to their home countries as already-existing laws on the books would seem to mandate.

According to KGNS, a group of about 40 illegal immigrant women were spotted Thursday evening at a Greyhound bus station in Laredo, Texas, having been dropped there by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

The women reportedly appeared somewhat confused and apprehensive, likely because of the vast amount of uncertainty regarding their future in the country, given the expected about-face U.S. immigration policies likely will see once the administration of President-elect Donald Trump takes over from the decidedly lax enforcement of the laws as seen under the Obama administration.

The illegal immigrant women were most likely “released on their own recognizance” by the ICE agents with a promise to appear in an immigration court at a later date. Unfortunately, an estimated 92 percent of illegal migrants released in such a manner never actually show up for their scheduled court appearances, according to conservative commentator Dennis Michael Lynch.

Judging by the comments on the local media post, citizens are nothing short of outraged by the treatment the Obama administration is giving individuals in the country illegally.

That outrage was echoed by Border Patrol agent Hector Garza, according to Breitbart, and he revealed that what was witnessed in Laredo is actually nothing new at all, but a continuation of the current president’s policies.

“President Obama has rolled out the red carpet for illegal immigrants,” said Garza, president of the Local 2455 of the National Border Patrol Council. “Most of the illegal immigrant families and unaccompanied children used to cross in the Rio Grande Valley. Now we are seeing massive numbers in the Laredo sector as well.”

“Our agents frequently put their lives at risk to apprehend these illegal border crossers and stop the flow of drugs,” he continued. “Despite the risks taken to make these apprehensions, the Obama administration simply lets them go. It wears on our agents’ morale. We want to do our job and protect this country.”

“Now we are learning that many of the immigrants processed by ICE are simply released on their own recognizance with a promise to appear for an immigration hearing at some future date,” added Garza.

Though we obviously can’t be certain quite yet how things will play out in the future, by all appearances it would seem that Garza will get his wish with the incoming Trump administration, and his Border Patrol will finally be allowed to the job it was intended to do — patrol the border and protect the country by apprehending and deporting immediately anybody caught entering without permission.
